Dodonaeoideae is a subfamily of flowering plants in the soapberry family, Sapindaceae.[1]

The subfamily includes 24 genera in two tribes, Dodonaeae and Doratoxyleae.[2]

A single fossil genus, †Alatacarpus Greller et Goudket, is known from the Late Cretaceous (Santonian)-aged Magothy Formation from Long Island, New York. The specimen consists of a fossil fruit similar to that of Dodonaea.[3]
